Reassembling the Hallway Upstairs

Today Colin continued working on the hallway upstairs. This weekend we started taping and mudding the drywall we hung last weekend, and we are getting the top of the stairs ready to nail in the wood ceiling. It dawned on us that we have not had a proper ceiling at the top of the stairs in about five years or more. We took down the horrible ceiling tiles and then realized that the roof was leaking, so we decided to wait until we replaced the roof. That took a while.

Colin also finished demolishing the old archway that was between the hall and what we are now calling The Blue Room, since we are thinking of painting it Benjamin Moore Mill Springs Blue.

All of this demolition has left us with a lot of plaster and lathe and garbage.
